As the title says, I’m looking for a new aero road helmet (in white, of course), and I’m torn between these four options:
– Met Manta
– Giro Eclipse Pro
– Sweet Protection Falconer Aero 2Vi
– Kask Utopia Y
I’m looking for a comfortable helmet for long rides that also looks good.
Which one would you recommend, and why?

Out of the 4 options, I would pick the Met Manta.
While I’ve never tried it, I’ve heard that the kask can be quite uncomfortable due to à lack of padding.
The Falconer looks good in photos but I find it gives you a mushroom head. Although, it’s very comfortable and has great ratings.
I’ve never seen the Giro but looks good in white.
The Manta not only looks good but is very comfortable.
For me the Sweet Protection Falconer Aero 2Vi is my choice
Yep. I also really like the Falconer (have one and about to buy another color).
Giro Eclipse is 10/10
Met Manta was tested to be one of the best aero helmets, unfortunately it doesn’t fit my round head well.
You need to try these on and see which is comfortable and looks good on your head. The 1-2 W difference between them are so negligible and dependent on angle and position and so on
The one that fits you best is the right choice, but all of those look pretty good. If I were picking just on aesthetics, the Met Manta All White is fire!

The MET looks by far(!) the best.
I got mips manta it’s a really nice helmet.
